Does anyone know if a converter box with a built in rf modulator exists? (composite inputs not just outputs). I've done a lot of looking with no luck. I can't believe this does'nt exist, there must be thousands of people who need a converter box and rf modulator hooked in tandem to support a dvd player or other devices. I've heard you can buy a DVR with with DTV tuner to do this but that is more than I am willing to spend and probably would not be a valid use of the $40 coupon. Anyone else have any sugestions?? Thanks

I don't know of a DTV converter box that dosen't have a CH3/4 modulator built in. I believe that was one of the requirements for coupon eligibility. There are some that don't have composite cable outputs. None have inputs other than antenna.
You could get something like a RCA CRF907 modulator and use it with a converter box and a DVD player that would automatically switch to the DVD player when it sensed a signal.

Extra costs for a product in little demand. You're actually looking for a product other than a ATSC converter or CECB.
Your friendly neighborhood content provider does not want you to be able to record and retransmit their perfect digital picture, it's called DRM (digital rights management).
What you need is a A/B switch, or better yet, a TV with A/V inputs RF is a poor way to feed a DVD player
